On the table, the wooden box has been opened, and a jade seal is lying quietly in it. Wang Jian is sitting at the table, lost in thought.

Not long after, the voice of Nachuan General Luo Yuxin came from outside the door.

"Brother Wang Jian, I'm leaving first, see you later!"

Wang Jian didn't say anything. Luo Yuxin thought there was no one in the house, so he hurriedly left Shangshan Temple with his subordinates.

The next day, when it was just dawn and the mountains were covered with mist, Wang Jian packed his bags and quietly left the temple and walked out of Shangluo Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain is a village. The village is dilapidated and there don't seem to be many villagers. The grass on both sides of the road has almost covered the road, and broken bricks and tiles are everywhere.

When he was about to leave the village, Wang Jian saw a woman walking toward him carrying a bucket of water.

When she saw a stranger, the woman suddenly looked panicked and hid on the side of the road with her head lowered.

"Where is my home? I'll help you." Wang Jian stepped forward, easily lifted the barrel, and said gently to the woman.

The woman did not dare to look at her and turned around to lead the way with some fear.

The walls of the small courtyard have collapsed, and only two earthen houses are still standing. Wang Jian placed the bucket in the courtyard and suddenly heard a baby crying.

The woman ran into the room in panic and seemed to cover the child's mouth, causing the crying to stop suddenly.

"Where is your man?" Wang Jian asked standing outside the room.

"Well, the man... is dead." The woman's voice was trembling, whether it was fear or excitement.

Wang Jian just asked casually and was about to leave. When he turned around, he saw several men with deer heads and rat eyes lying outside the broken walls around him, some old and young, staring at the earthen house where the woman was.

"Little widow, I must be hungry again. We hunted some meat today, let's trade it with you!"

The man who called out smiled obscenely, stepped out from behind the broken wall, came to the door of the earthen house, glanced inside, then turned back to Wang Jian and said, "Hey, this brother is familiar to me, he's from the next village, right?"

, are you done?"

"Um, I'm just helping to carry a bucket of water, passing by, passing by." Wang Jian explained.

When the man heard this, he ignored Wang Jian and said to the woman in the room: "Little widow, the meat is good today, can you get it a few more times?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman walked to the door, calmly stretched out her hand and asked, "Where's the meat?"

"Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, brothers, bring me the meat." Hearing this, the man hurriedly called his companions in the distance to come closer.

A dead rabbit was handed over to the woman. She took a closer look and accepted it after seeing that there was nothing wrong with it.

The man couldn't wait any longer, his throat kept crawling, and his dirty hands kept rubbing back and forth.

The woman pointed to the bucket of water next to Wang Jian. The wretched man was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. While taking off his clothes, he complained with some trouble: "You bitch, if it weren't for the leaders of the Mao Hulu gang protecting you,

I will tie you up directly."

"Hey, brother, give in, give in." The man took off all his clothes, stood next to Wang Jian, and said to Wang Jian.

Wang Jian gave the man a cold look and walked away.

The man picked up the bucket, poured it down from his head, and shouted happily.

The woman glanced at Wang Jian in the distance, and a trace of guilt seemed to flash through her originally cold face.

Immediately, as Wang Jian's pupils gradually dilated, he slowly and mechanically took off his clothes. His skirt fell to the ground, his wooden hairpin flicked away, he turned around numbly, pressed his hands on the wall and bent down.

The round buttocks are slightly raised, and there are a few scars on the slender waist.

"Brothers, hurry up and get in line to get water." The man waved his treasure while greeting several other companions.

After saying that, he impatiently stepped forward and reached the point without mercy.

Leaning forward and back, up and down, the expression on his face is as if he is wandering in the heaven.

Wang Jian just watched quietly, as the saying goes, don't look at anything inappropriate, but today, he didn't close his eyes, but saw clearly.

The woman's low moan made Wang Jian's eyes look colder at the men, and the hand on the sword hilt was about to move.

In the span of a cup of tea, the man collapsed to the ground, and the other people took turns taking turns.

From the mountains in the distance, a cock crows, melodious to the ears.

The early morning wind blew the sand off the house.

The men sat on the ground one after another, with dull expressions and empty eyes.

The woman leaned against the wall, her legs trembling, and there was a pool of liquid on the ground, a mixture of red and white.

Wang Jian silently stepped forward, picked up the woman's clothes, and put them on her body. He then pulled out the long sword from his waist and turned around to kill those people.

"Wait a minute, strong man..." the woman stopped her exhaustedly: "If you kill them, no one will give us orphans and widowed mothers anything to eat. The children are still young, so they must eat well."

Wang Jian was silent for a moment and sighed: "Didn't I say that the leader of Mao Hulu is protecting you? Why don't you defect?"

The woman couldn't help but sneer and looked at the man sitting not far away with disgust.

Wang Jian suddenly realized that they were not good birds.

"Where are the other people in the village?" Wang Jian thought, the neighbors would always help.

"Some followed King Chuang's army, some hid in the mountains, and those who were left behind were all dead," the woman said calmly.

At this time, a group of people suddenly appeared and surrounded everyone in front of the house.

These people were wearing animal skins, holding long bows in their hands, and animal skin quivers hanging from their waists. Some of them had baby tails on their heads, and they were all very muscular.

A man walked out. He looked like a leader. He was not tall, about half a head lower than Wang Jian. He had a square face, thick eyebrows and a beard, and a short blade in his waist.

"Sister-in-law, come with me. Although Mr. Zhao violated military law and was beheaded, he treated me well back then. I can't watch you end up like this."

"He did not violate military law, he was framed by the court dog officer!"

"Sister-in-law! What's the point of worrying about this! This is the way the world is. Just live and raise your children well for General Zhao Qi."

"Let's go, Ma Sanhe. Thank you for taking care of us. I have already repaid you. We owe nothing to each other."

Seeing that the woman was so determined, Ma Sanhe had no choice but to turn around and look at the men.

"Kill them!"

With a command, several sharp arrows flew up instantly, and those wretched men died before they could react.

Wang Jian reacted quickly, dodged the incoming arrow, and put his sword directly on Ma Sanhe's neck.

"Ma Sanhe!!" the woman shouted angrily.

"Sister-in-law, I will take you away no matter what you say today." Ma Sanhe glared at Wang Jian and said. He did not expect that the man in front of him was so skilled. He could draw his sword very quickly. He asked in surprise: "Who are you?"

"Wang Jian, a native of Qin."

"You didn't..."

"Passing by."

Ma Sanhe waved his hand to his men to put down their bows, and said to Wang Jian: "Hero, you go your way, you can't afford to offend us little gourds."

"Are you Luo Yuxin's subordinates?" Wang Jian asked tentatively.

"How do you know?" Ma Sanhe was shocked. They had just been recruited by Luo Yuxin and heard that they were going to Sichuan to fight, so he came here specifically today to take his sister-in-law away and place her in a safe place.

"Luo Yuxin, friend."

"Oops, misunderstanding!"

Ma Sanhe hurriedly explained, and Wang Jian removed the sword from his neck.

"Mao Gourd Soldiers, how much does it cost to hire you?" Wang Jian asked.

When he heard that there was a business, Ma Sanhe was immediately overjoyed. This time Luo Yuxin only hired a small number of Mao Gourd soldiers, but he still had many people under his command.

"How about this good man, twenty taels of silver or one tael of gold a year for each person?"

"Are you working hard?"

"Within one year, I will definitely work hard!"

"Pick ten good ones."

After Wang Jian finished speaking, he took out ten gold bars of one or two weight from his arms. They were found in the sandwich at the bottom of the wooden box.

Ma Sanhe was overjoyed when he saw this. He didn't expect to meet a noble person today.

"My boss, you are so generous! The ones I brought with me today are all elite men, you just have to choose!"

"You count one, and you choose the rest."

Ma Sanhe was stunned and said with a smile: "My boss, I'm just kidding, I'm their leader and I have many people under me."

"Then let's talk to Luo Yuxin." Wang Jian said, and the sword in his hand was placed on Ma Sanhe's neck.

"No, no, no! It's easy to discuss, easy to discuss..."

Luo Yuxin was a Sichuan general. This time, he was ordered by Wang Yingxiong, the governor-general of Sichuan, Hu, Yunnan and Guizhou military affairs, to suppress Zhang Xianzhong. He came to recruit Mao Gourd soldiers. It would be nice to give them some salary, twenty taels a year for each person. Dreaming

Impossible.

Now the man in front of me has really agreed to the price he just talked about. Where can he find such a good thing? It seems that this person is looking for a few guards. Wouldn't it be nice to earn more by following him without having to go to the battlefield?

Ma Sanhe thought seriously for a long time, raised his head and said solemnly to Wang Jian: "I am really their leader..."

"Huh?"
